Today in human geo we talked about cultural regions ( Beliefs, material traits, and social forms). The origin of the word culture is the latin cults which means to care for. To care about- to adore or worship something, as in the modern cult. To take care of-to nurse or look after something, as in the modern word culture. A cult is a special person that people like look up to. For example people looked up to a person and he said the world was going to end on a date and it did not and the people who look up to him were mad because they prepared and the world did not end. The difference between a religion and cult is a religion looks up to a higher being but they have similar beginnings. After we took notes we broke into groups and identified characteristics of regions.
Today in human geo we took a test on the world leaders. It got harder as it went on but hopefully I got a good grade because I need it!! I liked this unit learning about all the world letters. It makes me feel lucky that we don't have a leader like Syria's leader. Before this unit I didn't know some of the leaders but now I do and I liked learning about there backgrounds.
